A few weeks ago Shawn Michaels came out of retirement when he teamed up with Triple H to face the Brothers of Destruction at Crown Jewel.
Fans hadn’t seen Shawn Michaels in the ring since WrestleMania 26, but it didn’t take long at all for everyone to notice he was missing his long locks of hair.
Shawn Michaels recently talked about his new look on E&C’s Pod of Awesomeness, and he told the former WWE Tag Team Champions that originally he shaved his head for a movie, and he decided it was just time to let the hair go.
“Before this storyline started, I was doing a movie! I did this independent movie in Texas where I played a younger version with my hair and then I played an older version of me that got sick and everything else, so that’s why I ended up shaving it for the movie. And then, I get called in to do this thing, and I thought, ‘do you know what? Hunter has got his head bald. I’m just going to go ahead and leave it that way.’ And It was thinning up there anyway, man, and so it was better to just chop it all off.” Michaels added, “and now, it has gotten to where my wife likes it and [Edge and Christian] know the short stuff is much easier to manage,” Shawn Michaels said via Wrestling Inc.
Even though Shawn Michaels came out of retirement at Crown Jewel, it remains to be seen if he’ll be wrestling again, as he’s indicated that he doesn’t have much interested in lacing up the boots for another match.
